Predictions: 8 of 10 Winners, 4 Perfect, 565 Points   |   Tied for 21st with 2 others

Well fight fans, we are in for a fun Friday night of fights live from the land of the Rising Sun; as the UFC comes back to the Saitama Super Arena for the first time in two years with Yushin Okami making his UFC return against Ovince St. Preux.  Also, in the Co-Main we have a strawweight contender showdown between Jessica Andrade and Claudia Gadelha, as well as the UFC debut of former Glory Kickboxing Light Heavyweight Champion Gokhan Saki.

All the fighters have weighed in and only Mizuto Hirota has missed weight, although he missed it by 5 pounds (which caused him to get dropped from the card as a result).

The Fight Pass Prelims begin at 7:30 PM EST, with the rest of the card airing on FXX (NOT FS1) at 8:00 PM EST.

WE ROLLING, YEAH!

@Kuma

Yeah but not in a UFC Octagon.  It should be in a RIZIN Ring, like Cro Cop.

yeah, bad stoppage, but really, Gomi doesn't look like he wants to be there. the KO was inevitable. I don't know what's the deal here... does Gomi needs money and the UFC is helping? this dude should've been forcibly retired years ago. It's beyond sad now. You are a legend Gomi, go away, man.

I would think the UFC would want Rizin to stay steady,it'll help mma in Japan in general ultimately helping the UFC.

I was totally thinking Gadelha was going to gas coming out on fire like that but this is worse than I expected,plus I thought maybe she came out like that due to her improvements/confidence in cardio.I think Andrade wins the 3rd too,should be interesting.

That's arguably two 10-8 rounds for Andrade.

I hope she doesn't but Claudia could start using Tyron Woodley's new strategy of do as little as possible but win the round not to gas.

That was a ******* mugging. Andrade is an absolute savage.

I knew Andrade was good, but never did I expect her to dominate Gadelha like that.  I really hope she gets another chance at the 115 belt.
